The bed looks very far away from the ground, so far that she has to leap off the bed. Once she gets onto the floor, she realizes how big everything looks. The dresser looks like a giant mountain, the door looks like the gate of a palace, and the fan looks so high up that it could be an airplane. Then she walks into the bathroom to realize that she can’t even reach the toilet, the sink is too high for her to brush her teeth, and she can’t even reach high enough to turn the shower on. Cruella starts to get really frustrated about how nothing is working for her today, so she gives up and decides, maybe if she goes downstairs to get some breakfast, that everything will clear up and she can get back to her normal morning routine. But on the way down the stairs she sees herself in the mirror and sees that she is not actually herself, but that she has switched bodies with one of the dalmatians. At that moment, everything had changed for Cruella De Vil.
Cruella De Vil realizes that she is now in trouble. She has to try to fit in, and not act different so she won’t stick out.

Mildred Pierce, by James M. Cain, begins in pre-Depression California, and ends during World War II times, also in California. The main character, Mildred Pierce, is a very attractive housewife of 29, raising two daughters, Ray and Veda. Although Mildred loves both her daughters, Veda is a particular obsession with Mildred. She constantly slaves away throughout the novel to do whatever she can to make Veda happy, despite the constant abuse and deception Veda inflicts upon Mildred. After a divorce from her first husband, Bert, in the opening pages of the novel, Mildred is forced to sacrifice her pride and become a waitress in order to support her family. If Veda were ever to find out, she would be appalled; a constantly recurring theme throughout this story is Veda’s pride and arrogance, and her condemnation of jobs she deems to be menial. Mildred’s main goal is to nurture Veda’s musical talents, and manages to pay for expensive music lessons from her meager salaries as a waitress and pie baker. However, Mildred’s luck is soon to change, as she takes up with an attorney and former partner of Bert, Wally. Mildred is able to use Wally’s business and real estate savvy to build a restaurant out of a deserted model home, and from there create a thriving chain of three food businesses. After becoming bored with Wally, however, Mildred craves a relationship with another man, a prestigious local man named Monty. Veda highly approves of her mother’s choice, as this makes her feel as if she too were more prestigious and affluent, despite having misgivings about her mother still being so low as to have an average, pedestrian job. All seems to be going well; even through Veda’s constant demands and tantrums, she still gets everything she wants, and Mildred and Monty are happy. Monty, however, falls on hard times with the coming of the Great Depression, and he constantly mooches off of Mildred’s affluence, making it a struggle for Mildred to cater to Veda’s every whim. Mildred soon dumps Monty to focus on making Veda a musical prodigy; this fails, however, when Veda is told that her piano is not up to par from a local famous music teacher. After Veda recovers from this shock, she explores the opportunities offered by an acting career, and begins to spin more webs of deception and selfishness. After Veda forces money out of a local rich family, lying and claiming their son got her pregnant, Mildred and Veda have a major argument, and Veda disowns her mother.

Shakespeare’s Hamlet is set in the late middle ages, in Denmark. A time in history when women were not respected and thought of as the inferior sex.

Ophelia surrenders herself to the cruelty of those around her, and sacrifices her sanctity to please and conform
